How the
Federal Government Seeks to Control Our Food Supply
by
September 7, 2024
Food prices are climbing, but soon will soar — inflation is
ensured due to recent massive spending. As Americans are pushed to consume artificial meat as
a solution to the alleged environmental
impact of cow farts, the government seeks to expand its techno-monitoring,
in the name of “health and safety,” by requiring the RFID chipping of all
livestock. The argument is that animal tracking will protect the public from
an animal disease outbreak.
This pretense to control all food production for health and
safety is reminiscent of the argument that gain-of-function research used to create the COVID-19 virus was
motivated not for bioweapons research but to “prevent a pandemic.” Writer
Wendell Berry has been warning for decades that government agencies and
academic bigshots conspire to destroy farms in the name of helping them.
The federal government, eagerly helped by the Vermont
Agency of Agriculture Food and Markets (VAAFM), seeks to implant microchips in
all livestock, beginning with dairy cows. But the pretended purpose of tracking
safety is not served by imposing these requirements on small producers and
on-farm slaughter operations, the businesses that are most thriving even before
COVID, but which are the hardest for the federal government to track.
